Abstract

This paper shows an implementation of the baseband processor compliant with the IEEE 802.11a standard. Some innovative techniques are proposed to fulfill the mandatory requirements of the standard. For verification and analysis of this design, we use a Platform-based SoC (system on chip) environment. The entire system consists of test-board for the baseband processor chip and the SoC platform for implementing MAC (medium access control).

본 논문에서는 IEEE 802.11a 표준안에 적합한 기저대역 프로세서를 설계하였다. 또한 표준안에서 제시된 기본적인 기술이외에 필요한 기능을 충족시키기 위한 새로운 알고리즘이 제시되었다. 설계된 기저대역 프로세서의 구현 및 검증을 위해 SoC 플랫폼을 이용하였다. 플랫폼 기반의 IEEE 802.11a WLAN을 설계하기 위한 환경은 기저대역 프로세서 칩을 테스트하기 위한 테스트 보드와 MAC을 이행할 SoC 플랫폼으로 구성되어 있다.
